Sebi Cancels Registrations of 17 Research Analysts for Non-Payment of Renewal Fees
The Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) cancelled the registrations of 17 research analysts for failing to pay mandatory renewal fees required every five years. Despite notices issued in February 2025, none of the entities responded, leading to cancellation under Sebi's Intermediaries Regulations, 2008. The regulator stated the move aims to prevent misuse of expired certificates, while clarifying that the entities remain liable for their past actions as research analysts.
